I'm assuming Yellow House and MATA Vietnamese Food Gardens are still there (no idea how customers are expected to get to them.

Does anyone know some more of the construction work in the top end of soi 94? Is it 'just' improvements of the road/drainage? How big area are we talking about? And when is it supposed to be finished?

I don't know if it's just coincidence, or in response to the above comment, but I see yesterday evening that a sign has been erected - it is called Orange Bar. Hopefully not too late to add to the map. Will add photo later.

Not as many as you think Lev as you have wrongly deleted Noi's Pit Stop. I walked past less than 30 minutes ago and said hello to the lady who assists Alan in running it who was sat outside with a customer. I did advise this on Tuesday........................

I missed Tuesday's post - sorry (thread moved to new page and I didn't look back ). However, although Noi's Pit Stop is still there, I have not seen it function as a bar for many weeks. I drive past it at all hours of the day/night, and I can't remember the last time I saw anybody drinking there. I agree it is still a place where you can hire motorcycle - a friend hired one there only last week, but motorcycle hire is not the purpose of this map.

Is my perception of what I see several times each day wrong? If so, I'm willing to re-address the situation, and correct it on the next map. Unfortunately, I can't drink, so stepping inside to use it as a bar is not realistic for me.

It doesn't usually open at night, it's more of a place for regulars in the daytime and there is only one member of staff who serves the drinks and takes care of the bike rental. As I said a customer was drinking there today as I was myself on Tuesday. The bar itself, fridges, toilets etc have always been in the shophouse, the land next door was rented separately as additional seating area and somewhere to house the vast collection of rental bikes.
Now there is just a small seating area outside the shophouse, partially obscured by the rental bikes but it still operates as a bar.

I went back to the site of Noi's Pit Stop, and indeed there was a table and a couple of chairs outside. However, the signage has gone, so the only identification is something like Motorcycle Hire, of which there seems to be several occurrences in many Hua Hin Sois. In its current state, it is not suitable for the Soi 94 Map - sorry.
